At Chapel End, we have a wonderful environment into which we welcome your child for the start of their education. We aim for the time your child spends with us to be happy and successful and provide a firm foundation on which they can build for the future. To achieve this we firmly believe that home and school should work together and we look forward to a positive and supportive relationship with you – the parents and carers.
Your child will be taught by highly committed teachers and early years practitioners who encourage a high standard of achievement and individual development in a secure and supportive atmosphere. Our most recent OFSTED (June 2017) stated that the leadership team has maintained a good quality of education in the school since the previous inspection, establishing a strong learning atmosphere that provides pupils with an oasis of calm. As a result, pupils are positive about learning and enjoy helping each other in class. Our nursery provides part-time education nursery places and full-time day-care places for 2, 3, and 4-year-olds.

We will nurture confident and resilient children by:

- Offering an engaging and inclusive curriculum that makes the most of our outdoor green space
- Giving all of our children the confidence and skills they need to realize their potential
- Providing challenge, praising effort, and encouraging everyone to be the best that they can be.
Caring, sharing, and trying our best. We take care of each other. We share our time, enthusiasm, and skills. We try our best in all we do. We celebrate, value, and respect diversity within our school community.
This year we have introduced the Cornerstones Curriculum into Year 1 and Year 2. This is a broad and balanced, knowledge and skills-based curriculum with a creative edge, comprising of themed projects mapped to the national curriculum. Each theme will last for approximately half a term and will support all aspects of the curriculum except for reading which is taught through the reading, Write Inc Programme, and Maths which is taught through the Abacus Maths Scheme although links to both these areas are built into the curriculum.
